Things don’t look good for the Steelers, as Roethlisberger threw for 191 yards and scored 9.64 fantasy points. I would keep him sidelined against the Bengals, who have held Big Ben to one or fewer passing scores in eight of their last nine meetings. He’s also thrown for 280 yards or fewer in 15 straight.

Let’s face it – you’re not sitting Boldin after he went off against the Packers. However, you might want to temper expectations. In 2012, no team allowed fewer fantasy points to wideouts at home than the Seahawks. That includes Michael Crabtree, who scored 6.5 points against them in Week 16.

If you’re thinking of starting Williams against the Saints, you might want to think again. He has averaged fewer than 65 yards in six career games against them and has never had a reception of 25-plus yards. What’s more, Williams has failed to post a single touchdown in his last four games against this NFC South opponent.

Jennings came with all kinds of risk after signing with the Vikings, and his weak performance in Week 1 did nothing but further concerns. Next he faces the Bears, who have held Jennings to just one total touchdown in their last five meetings. He has also recorded 60-plus yards just once in six career games in Chitown.

Johnson scored a touchdown in a last-second loss against the New England Patriots, but he failed to produce double-digit fantasy points in standard leagues. With an inexperienced quarterback in EJ Manuel under center and a tough matchup against the Panthers next, Johnson is no lock to produce a solid stat line.

White is dealing with the effects of a high ankle sprain, which limited him to just two catches in last week’s loss to the New Orleans Saints. He tweeted that fantasy owners should be careful starting him this week if he’s unable to practice, which is enough to raise red flags. White is a risk as long as his ankle remains an issue.

This is a deep sleeper, but Brown is on the fantasy radar now that he’s starting opposite Torrey Smith. With CB Joe Haden focusing on Smith, don’t be shocked if Brown is targeted more than a few times in this AFC North battle. As a result, owners desperate for a third wideout or flex starter should take notice.

Bowe was invisible in the stat sheets last week against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but owners should continue to start him as a No. 3 wideout with No. 2 potential against the Cowboys. Their defense allowed three different wideouts to post 100-plus yards last week including one, Victor Cruz, who found the end zone three times.

The Bills have one of the most fantasy-friendly defenses in the league, making Smith an attractive option. Last week, Buffalo allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to wideouts including two touchdowns to Julian Edelman. With DBs Jairus Byrd and Stephon Gilmore out of action, the Bills will continue to be vulnerable as a pass defense.

Garcon posted a solid seven catches last week against the Eagles, but his 64 yards (6.4 fantasy points) in standard leagues wasn’t at all eye-popping. Regardless, owners should still keep him active – even if it’s as just a No. 3 wide receiver – against a Packers defense that allowed 13 catches, 208 yards and one touchdown to Anquan Boldin in Week 1.
